Books I’ve read this month or are in process, plus source of acquisition. Cause I always like to over-share.
The Bean Trees by Barbara Kingsolver. It’s a sad fact I’ve never read Kingsolver’s fiction. This title was a library giveaway. It’s not her award-winning latest, but it’s a start.
How Soccer Explains the World (An Unlikely Theory of Globalization) by Franklin Foer. My brother lent me this one. Now I can look like I’m interested in soccer during the World Cup (an event I’m not at all paying attention to).
Summer at Tiffany by Marjorie Hart. A memoir in which New York City in 1945 is the central character.
The Outside Boy by Jeanne Cummins. Novel. Loved the writing, enjoyed the characters. Reminded me of Frank McCourt’s Angela’s Ashes. The Outside Boy and Summer at Tiffany were given to those who attended the Book Blogger Conference.
Two for Book Tours: Life, in Spite of Me (Extraordinary Hope After a Fatal Choice) by Kristen Jane Anderson with Tricia Goyer and Stuff Christians Like by Jonathan Acuff. Could these books be any more different?
That’s my June so far, in books. What have you been reading?
